MB had good reason to add the modifications they did to the turbo engines, and if I was designing a turbo diesel I would add the same. That doesn't mean the engine will self destruct or not work correctly without them! They are good features to have on a diesel engine which make it run better, but you'll find plenty of reliable and durable turbo diesel engines without oil squirters or boost enrichment.

It's absurd to accuse me of thinking I "know better" than Mercedes to think those features aren't absolutely necessary. Mercedes isn't in the business of doing only what is necessary to have a simple reliable vehicle. They have a specific purpose, cost, and advantages which both the Mercedes engineers and I are aware of. If you're designing a new engine from scratch it's great to add them, but if you're adding a turbo to an engine that doesn't have them- it will work just fine.

Got to admire a fellow who "doesn't believe" what the M/B engineers know and he's will to act on it.

Pete,

...so I booked into a hotel and said to the receptionist,

"I hope the porn channel in my room is disabled."


"No," she said, "it's regular porn, you sick bastard."
